CASABLANCA

(1942) dir Michael Curtiz w/Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid, Claude Rains, Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, Conrad Veidt, Dooley Wilson [102 min; 35mm]Back in the '60s, CASABLANCA at the Brattle played like Rocky Horror does now with people coming dressed in costume, reciting the lines at the screen, and boisterously singing along. CASABLANCA still draws crowds here, and with good reason, it has a little something for everyone: the star-crossed romance between Bogie and Bergman, the comic banter between Bogie and Rains' rakish French police commander, and a thrilling plot involving Nazis, resistance fighters, theft and murder.
